Blogger in contact with Western Wats resigns from Romney campaign

UPDATE: Justin Hart corrects me that he resigned last night before going on the Hugh Hewitt show. The email that he sent me was dated later in the evening, but contained confirmation from earlier in the evening. I should have read more carefully.

Justin Hart has notified me that he has resigned from his position as a Vice Chair of the Romney campaign’s Faith and Values Steering Committee after I challenged himfor not disclosing that he was an official in the Romney campaign.

Justin had been, until today, the only person who Western Wats would speak with. This afternoon Liz Mair wrote about a discussion she had with Jeffery Welch, a senior Western Wats executive and Romney donor.

He appears to have resigned soon after contacting the Romney Iowa staffers who the Romney campaign has now admitted to misrepresenting to the press.
